Nice video. Mora I’m planning a trip to Mexico in February or March but can’t decide if I should go to Quertaro or Mexico City to go to Pueblo . Which would you recommend? Pueblo looks so interesting to possibly live but I worry the airport is 2.5 hrs away.

Thank you for sharing another beautifully recorded adventure, Mora!! Flying out IAH to CDMX tomorrow. Before I return to the US, I will try and send you family contact numbers in Mexico in case you ever need anything. ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ Happy Holidays!!!! ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ - Ricardo -

I'm making my first trip to Zihuatanejo in about 6 weeks. If our trips had coincided, I could've gotten your autograph! 😀. Thank you, Mora, for your wonderful videos. The episodes are visually beautiful and I learn so much!

Glad your ok. Best wishes to you. Cling on. Jk

Hi mora saludos from Portland Oregon you can answer if you want enjoy your vacation in 🇲🇽 zihua is beautiful.

Get well Mora! God bless you.

God bless you. My guess is, you're of the chosen people. Praise the Lord, I'm a Gentile, and also chosen.

Thanks for your honest view.May is the worst month!

Que envidia de la buena 😅

Thank you for the honest and candid video! This kind of information is immensely helpful for those of us contemplating a move to Mexica from the US.

Same boat here, feel like I’ve done all that I could, kids are grown and a roommate like relationship without any rewarding affection for either one. Kids grown just want to get away

Hello Mora, another lovely video. I’m curious what you do with your dogs when you get to these places? For instance, the sea turtle center…are the dogs right there with you on the beach? Just curious how you manage them when you take these day trips. My sweet boy is a large, well behaved dog, but I’m not sure about taking him into those type of areas. The plant…Momordica Balsamina. Very exotic and cool!

Thanks for the objective opinion. Most of the other videos are "rose colored glasses".

Having people keep the birds away makes us useful idiots for the turtles.

For driving in Mexico, the Waze app tends to be better than Google. It is common practice for the large trucks to turn their left signal on and/or pull over to the right as much as possible as a signal to you that you can pass. But the "you can pass" doesn't mean you go 100% into the oncoming lane as you may need to "share" the oncoming lane with another who is passing as well. It is really remarkable how what we know as a two-lane road in the US can become and 3 or 4 lane road in Mexico. It is terrifying at first, but eventually you get used to the flow. You may want to check out Oaxaca City, Puebla and San Cristobal de Las Casas as other colonial (milder climate) areas. I lived in San Cristobal de Las Casas for 2 years and loved it. But eventually I was tired of feeling a bit cold and moved to Puerto Escondido for 9 months - where I always felt too hot. I think you are finding the right mix - generally in the higher elevation for living then a beach get away to warm your bones.

Nice video! I saw that movie as well. You show a much different side than the movie. Love it!

Yes people need a change and Mexico can be a great place best wishes to everybody who wants to make the plunge happy holidays.

What is sad they say not many sea turtles don’t make to adulthood.

Mora have a happy Xmas and happy new year’s best wishes.

is that the city Red went to meet Andy in shawshank redemption?

Mora. You need a traveling companion. One that loves your dogs as much as you do.

Mora I went there because of the movie Shawshank redemption

Treasure you are. We have to be honest with ourselves for the sake of good mental health. You are gifted with frankness and your story- telling kept me involved with your path. Thank you.

Gr8 vid Margaret. Do you have an Instagram account?

Is that Mary Poppins' bag? Feliz Navidad

That was fun! The driving is just like I heard. It was great to see actual footage. Glad you had a nice getaway! T & C in Seattle

My husband and I love your videos!! You are an amazing woman! We love your dogs too! 🐶🐶💕

12:09 That scary highway, of course, is an autopista -- a toll road -- and until about 15 years ago were always four lane, divided highways. Then some government genius came up with the looney notion of building two-lane autopistas , no doubt to stretch government pesos. Alas, Mexican drivers continued driving on them like they drove on the four-laners. They are very dangerous. Some of the two -laners are now being turned into four -laners. Some high-level bureaucrat came to his senses. The autopista between Patzcuaro and Uruapan is one of those being expanded, thank the Goddess.

Weighted vest for your fearful dog. 😊

All of Mexico is beautiful. Every town and every city is engraved in wealth from its colonia times… proof of that is everywhere

Great video as always Wonderful to see you living your best life Hope to see u soon Take care happy holidays aka feliz navidad I think 🤔 gotta start somewhere

Hola thanks for the video.. can you share the dog friendly Airbnb you stayed at? Are allowed to take the dogs on the beach there? Gracias

Great video!

Economies in US and Canada are hurting unfortunately and are going to get worse in the years ahead, so less people taking vacations. That was some crazy driving!

You remember the movie Shawshank Redemption. ? I wonder if they sell t shirts with the movie name on it.

God bless you I can feel it in your voice and your eyes the peace and happiness, specially in that beautiful town of patzcuaro Felicidades

Try Troncones next time

Beautiful I wanted to see you ride that big yellow parachute.

Thank you, Mora! Your videos are invaluable,

Beautifully made video, I enjoyed it very much, thanks!

Thank you so much for your videos. You have helped convince me that it is time for me, at 62, to sell my home and furnishings, pack up the RV and move to Mexico. I just don't want to work anymore, and if I move to Mexico, I can make the money I have stretch and last. So, again, thank you! Maybe I'll bump into you sometime in my travels south of the border. :)

Next time just aim your mobile toward the flower open google search, click on the little camera icon and it'll almost always tell you exactly what kind of flower it is.

Hi, Mora. The vine you showed at the end is called a balsam pear, or 'bitter melon'. It is an invasive species originally from tropical Africa and southeast Asia. I have them in my yard in Florida. They grow rapidly and will eventually cover small trees and shrubs if left unchecked. They are also nearly impossible to get rid of. The leaves and (green) pods are edible and used primarily in Asian cuisine.

Mora, try TRONCONES. It's a dog friendly beach and nice places to rent.

Thanks for this video, now I have another place to visit. the walk towards the beach reminded me of San Pancho.

So glad you look better mora!

Lovely dogs 🐕

Strange plant is a Bitter Melon. Have a beautiful day Mora xx
